See the samples/service directory to learn how to create an example service.

Create an index.php with a Service object and your Slim routes:

$service = new NYPL\Starter\Service();

$service->get("/v0.1/bibs", function (Request $request, Response $response) {
    $controller = new Controller\BibController($request, $response);
    return $controller->getBibs();
});

Configure your web server to load index.php on all requests. See the samples/service-config directory for sample configuration files for an Apache .htaccess or Nginx nginx.conf installation.

Create a Swagger route to generate Swagger specification documentation:

$service->get("/swagger", function (Request $request, Response $response) {
    return SwaggerGenerator::generate(__DIR__ . "/src", $response);
});
